I’ve completed the design and initial implementation of some C++ classes for storage of TCP round trip data. These classes are simple, especially since I’m leveraging functionality from the Dwm::IO namespace in my libDwm library.
The Dwm::WWW::TCPRoundTrips class is used to encapsulate a std::vector of round trip times. Each round trip time is represented by a Dwm::TimeValue (class from libDwm). I don’t really care about the order of the entries in the vector, since a higher-level container holds the time interval in which the measurements were taken. Since I don’t care about the order of entries in the vector, I can use mutating algorithms on the vector when desired.
The Dwm::WWW::TCPHostRoundTrips class contains a std::map of the aforementioned Dwm::WWW::TCPRoundTrips objects, keyed by the remote host IP address (represented by Dwm::Ipv4Address from libDwm). An instance of this class is used to store all round trip data during a given interval. This class also contains a Dwm::TimeInterval (from my libDwm library) representing the measurement interval in which the round trip times were collected.
both of these classes have OrderStats() members which will fetch order statistics from the encapsulated data. I’m hoping to develop a box plot class for Wt in order to display the order statistics.
